In June, ForestEthics partnered with International League of Conservation Photographers shooter Neil Osborne on a project to gather images along the proposed route of Enbridge’s Northern Gateway Pipeline.

Learn about oil tankers

Once the oil from the Northern Gateway Pipeline reached Kitimat, it would be loaded onto oil tankers for export to foreign markets. The proposed project would require some 225 oil tankers per year. The oil tanker traffic Enbridge’s pipeline would bring to B.C.‘s pristine North Coast represents the project’s greatest risk to the region’s environment.

Learn about the JRP process

Enbridge’s proposed Northern Gateway Pipeline will be reviewed by a Joint Review Panel led by the National Energy Board and Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency.

The Joint Review Panel is a quasi-judicial process that will involve hearings in communities along the pipeline route and on the B.C. coast. It is similar to the review process that was conducted for the MacKenzie Valley Gas Project in the Northest Territories, however there are some key differences.
